Middlebury Institute students had the opportunity to travel to Bhutan over spring break to experience first hand the Himalayan nation’s rich culture and commitment to a political philosophy based on “Gross National Happiness.”

The Center for Advising and Career Services, with support from the Alumni Relations Office, organized a career networking trip to Washington DC over spring break that attracted 60 enthusiastic students.

Middlebury alumnus Bill Maris, the founder and CEO of Google Ventures, will kick off the institutional initiative known as Envisioning Middlebury with a talk that will be live streamed from Vermont on April 11th.

The Middlebury Institute has joined a consortium of higher education institutions organized by the Institute of International Education (IIE) designed to aid refugees whose education has been disrupted by the civil war in Syria.
